Applications open in early 2027

We have spent the past year defining the shape of the Foundation: ten grants of €100,000 over ten years, in six regions where we already have relationships on the ground. The next step is opening applications, which we plan to do in early 2027.

In the meantime, the criteria are published. If you run a registered organization working in education in Portugal (Leiria), Estonia (Narva), Burkina Faso (Bobo-Dioulasso), Morocco (the High Atlas), Ukraine (Odesa Oblast), or Thailand (Chiang Mai), please read the apply page and start preparing. We are happy to receive early submissions; we will hold them until the round opens and review them then.

We will publish more here as the launch approaches — board updates, the application form itself, and notes from the site visits we are doing through 2026.
